* V-Frame masks are one of the most popular choices to produce anterior casts for years worldwide and can provide the rigid fixation necessary for radiotherapy treatment techniques by using Versaboard™.
* Our V-Frame masks are mainly made of two kinds of low-temperature thermoplastics shown below:
AquaCast™ can become transparent in hot water and regain the colors back after
cooling down.
FuzzyCast™ has unique fuzzy materials built on the thermoplastics of patient side
to increase patient comfort and minimize skin allergy and hair-sticking problem. Materials can become translucent in the
hot water bath within about 1~2 minutes depending upon water temperature, thickness of material and perforation patterns.
Materials will regain the original colors back after cooling down.
* In addition to a comprehensive thicknesses from 1.6mm, 2.0mm, 2.4mm, 3.2mm, up to 4.0mm, we can supply masks with various popular perforations with coding from # 3, # 4, # 5 and # 6.
To order our V-Frame masks, simply adding the material codes @ after catalog # on your orders, say, the first masks on the top left, # PVD-24 @AC163 in the following table is a standard V-Frame mask made of 1.6mm AquaCast™ with length 24cm and 13% micro-perforation # 3.
* Our standard V-Frame masks are made of Easy-to-Stretch and pliable thermoplastic materials to maximize patient comfort for cast production. But masks made of Normal-to-Stretch materials are also available. For ordering V-Frame masks made of more elastic materials, please add -NS after the material codes.
* Our V-Frame Masks are using push and pull docking mechanism whose pins are easy to grasp and snap in and out on Versaboard™. The damaged sleeves can be easily replaced without using any tools.
The standard V-Frame Masks come with small round Disk pins and can be ordered by catalog # heading with

Masks with Wing pins are also available by catalog # heading with # PVW- (as the
right one).
V-Frame Masks are also available for reinforced mask with open face design which feature a combination perforated and solid
thermoplastics designed for additional rigidity and benefits for IMRT like the perforation style RV2
(the second item # PVD-29 @AC24 RV2 on the top right in the upper table) features a perforation
pattern around the eyes and mouth to maximize patient comfort.
To order the following masks, simply adding the material codes @ after
Catalog # , for example, the first item on the top right in the bottom table,
# PVD-43 @AC24 RV3 is the reinforced V-Frame mask made of thickness 2.4mm AquaCast™
with figure perforation RV3
